    Notes 
    • This Patrick M. McKenzie and Helen Elinora Lovinia Getty family has led me into an interest in the MCKENZIES of Somerset County, PA, and Allegany and Garrett Counties, MD. This is compounded by the fact that Michael Aaron MCKENZIE married Loretta MCKENZIE (1867-1904) about 1892 in LaGrange County, IN, and Loretta's ancestry also leads back to the Somerset area. Loretta's father Joseph Christian MCKENZIE (1837-1925) was from Maryland (though I have yet to confirm his ancestors), and Loretta's mother Hannah FAIR (1842-1880) traces back to Christopher FAIR (1769-1850) of Somerset County, PA, and Tuscarawas County, OH. Hannah FAIR's mother Rachel Baker (1810-1892) may be the daughter of Douglas Baker (1768-1850) and Anna Marie (or Mary Ann) GARLITZ (1772-1852), but I have yet to prove this. Douglas Baker and his family also went to Tuscarawas County, OH, from Somerset County, PA. MCKENZIEs, FAIRs, BAKERs and GARLITZes all went to LaGrange County, IN, and most or all of these families seem to have Somerset roots.

      Ed. Note: I am not sure who wrote the above entry. Joseph Christian McKenzie's parents were Samuel Francis McKenzie (b. 1805) and Sarah Durbin (b. 1809).

      Ed note: Michael Aaron was christened on 1 May 1853. Sponsors: Mary L. Porter and M. Slattery. Page 6. Records of St. Michael's Catholic Church. St. Michael's was established in 1852. MSA M 3743 (1852-1910).
